Question

find the distance between point A(-3,5) and point B(4,-6) in the coordinate plane. 1- What is the distance formula? 2- plug in the correct values from the problem, write the diatance formula with substituted values 3- simplify the expression, what is the distance between the two points?

Answer 1

1- What is the distance formula?

distance = √(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²

2- plug in the correct values from the problem, write the diatance formula with substituted values

distance = √(4-(-3))² + (-6-5)²

3- simplify the expression, what is the distance between the two points?

distance = √170 = 13.04

Explanation:

Answer 2

1- What is the distance formula?
distance = √(x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²

2- plug in the correct values from the problem, write the diatance formula with substituted values
distance = √(4-(-3))² + (-6-5)²

3- simplify the expression, what is the distance between the two points?
distance = √170 = 13.04
